This game is so sweet I recommend it to anyone who likes shoot em up games, and anyone who doesn't. I've beat it three times, it is so fun, yet challenging!! It is awesome.
The extreme!!!

For fans of the first Bond adventure or someone wondering what all the commotion is about, this game rocks!!! The graphics and gameplay are incredible. I still play the origianl and never fail to have a blast. Lots of the same features are there like the car chase levels and of course the wonderful first-person level exploring. Great movie sequences and plenty of Bond fun and gadgets. A must for the Gamecube owner!!!
Don't pass this one over as just another FPS

007: Nightfire is a lot more than just another FPS (First Person Shooter), the game's single player levels are a combination of three game engines: The first is a decent first person shooter engine that will occasionally cut to third-person perspective so you can perform "Bond moves", (think Metal Gear Solid), the second engine is the latest Need For Speed engine that has been modified to support targeting and use weapons, the third is a first person shooter perspective from a moving vechical (snow board, airplane, etc..). The combination of these three unique game types helps keep the game interesting. The single player levels are well thought out and non-linear (you can choose to turn most leves into a shoot-em up or you can be sly and play out the bound role to keep casualties low).
You have three difficulity settings, if you play the game on easy, it is just that, the assisted targeting feature (which you may not even notice) makes the game appoachable for younger and less hard core gamers, control is very smooth, changing weapons and deciding when to use them is intuitive thanks to a good design.
Multiplayer mode is typical split-screen death match, not much to be said, other than it's a nice-to-have feature.
A bargain at $50

As a casual gamer, it's usually pretty hard to get me to part with [my hard earned cash] for a video game. I tend to wait until games are a couple years old and then pick them up [cheap].
That being said, not only did I pay [full price] for Nightfire, but I also bought the GameCube console to run it. This game is incredible. The graphics are so good in places you have to blink a couple times to be sure you aren't watching a DVD. I thought Goldeneye was a thoroughly enjoyable game, but Nightfire is a very substantial improvement in graphics, gameplay, and storyline.
For the most part, Nightfire is still a first-person shooter, but with enough variety that gameplay doesn't get stale. You'll find yourself zipping across frozen lakes firing at helicopters from snowmobiles and cruising Bond's Aston Martin through the city as well.
Bottom line, this is a gorgeous game that's a blast to play. You won't regret buying it.
Awesome game

This Game is great. The car levels are full of action and u cant just call it a shoot em up game. This game is more stealthy and secretive then Agent Under fire. This is NOT a mindless shooter game
An Average Game

What? You're asking how DURABLE is this TOY. How can a game be durable?...how?...
Well lets start:
I have seen all the james bond movies and I have goldeneye and T.W.I.N.E on the N64. But EA:s recent bond games, Agent under fire and Nightfire are games not done from movies. EA has designed the plot for them... they failed. The games are not as good as TWINE was and the multiplayer is far from goldeneye. I'm still going to buy this because im a great FPS fan.... Go for timesplitters instead...

I went into this title expecting Nightfire to be Agent Under Fire with new levels. Boy, was I wrong. Nightfire is the game Bond fans have been waiting for.
Most people think this game is on the short side. Are you blind? Sure, it only has 12 levels, but with 4 medals to unlock on each level, three difficulty levels, and multiple ways to beat a level, it is a long game. This game is the closest you'll get to playing Goldeneye on Gamecube.
The graphics are amazing. Bond moves, talks, and moves like Pierce Brosnan. The environments are gorgeus with combustable objects, and animated objects.
Multiplayer is a delightful suprise. Sheer Bond nostalgia is present. I found myself playing as Oddjob, Jaws, May Day and even Nick Nack. There is also A plethorea of modes. I found myself finding the halves of the goldeneye key, and assassinating a random target.
